Bang & Olufsen announces a collaboration with Google and brings Google Cast™* to the Bang & Olufsen´s all-in-one wireless music system: BeoSound 35 and BeoSound Essence (2nd generation), a one touch music control.
The Wi-Fi based Google Cast™ technology lets you enjoy entertainment streaming services such as Spotify**, Deezer and TuneIn directly casted to the network speaker BeoSound 35 or via a BeoSound Essence. You simply tap the Cast button on your favorite mobile music app to start playing music from your Bang & Olufsen product.
Google Cast™ enables you to enjoy music directly from the cloud instead of music playing from your device, risking disrupting your music experience with text messages or phone calls. As a bonus this saves battery on your device. Using Google Cast™ everybody is a DJ, where ease of use and great sound quality gives the consumer an optimal music experience on their Bang & Olufsen products.
Google Cast will be available via a software push end of June, and will be prompted directly to existing customers. Beside Google Cast, Bang & Olufsen products support Apple AirPlay, DLNA, Bluetooth and BeoLink Multiroom, making it possible to choose between various streaming technologies.
